In this instructable I will show you how to make a chubby string heart. It is basically a repeat  of a previous Instructable that I posted last Easter, String Easter Eggs which is made from wrapping string dredge through a stiffener around a balloon.  This time around I am using two balloons to form a heart shape, making this fun Valentines craft.

Step 1: What you will need

  • yarn, string, or embroidery floss
  • balloons (if you can find heart shaped balloons even better -I couldn't find any)
  • white glue
  • a small container to hold glue mixture
  • a pin to pop the balloon
  • glitter

Cool idea, your balloon idea can be used as a base for many other things as well.

Genius! And how cute is that? If I wasn't in the middle of moving, I would have to sit down and make some of these for Tuesday night. :D
